✦ Synopsis

A three-degree-of-freedom aeroelastic model with freeplay is modeled theoretically using a small number of aerodynamic eigenmodes (i.e. a reduced order model) based upon Peters' finite-state model for two-dimensional aerodynamic flow. The limit cycle behavior and the sensitivity to initial conditions for the onset of limit cycle oscillations are discussed. A simple and interesting physical explanation for this behavior is presented based on harmonic balance or describing function calculations that have been confirmed by numerical time simulations. The theoretical results are also in good agreement with experiment and a universal scaling law for the dependence of limit cycle oscillations and bifurcation parameters on freeplay is elucidated.

A three degree-of-freedom aeroelastic typical section with control surface freeplay is modeled theoretically as a system of piecewise linear state-space models . The system response is determined by time marching of the governing equations using a standard Runge -Kutta algorithm in conjunction with

It is well known that the presence of non-linearities may signi"cantly a!ect the aeroelastic response of an aerospace vehicle structure. In this paper, the aeroelastic behaviour at high Mach numbers of an all-moving control surface with a non-linearity in the root support is investigated. Very often
